I’m having fun making these karaoke style videos lately. Call it a phase. I’d like to make some videos starring yours truly and friends but it’s a hard winter and frankly, I’m too busy saving the world.
Seriously, I am trying. Are you?
Hello everybody!
I meant to post this song a few weeks ago and somehow never got around to it. This is the 1st song I wrote in 2012 titled, appropriately enough, “happy new year”. Well, better late than never!
The 1st file is an MP3 and 2nd file is a quick video I made using the actual fireworks that I experienced celebrating 2012 New Year’s. The cool thing about those fireworks is that it’s the 1st time I’ve ever been above the fireworks looking down and on occasion many of the blasts exploded on the same floor as our hotel suite, overlooking downtown Hamburg.
Anyway, I hope you like this song. Admittedly I was a little insecure about it but I tested it with a few friends and everybody said it was cool. So, there you have it. Happy new year!
Immediately after purchase, you will be directed to download your MP3 and Video.
Perhaps you’ve already seen this MUST SEE MOVIE and if so, make sure everyone you know has seen it. Yes, it’s scary and will likely change your relationship to eating but hey, that’s the fukn point!
Hey Peeps!
Yeah, I tweeted a few days ago about getting off my ass and trying out one of the um-teen Casting Shows dominating the planets entertainment spectrum. It seems to be about the only way to reach a load of people since Goddess knows record companies aren’t doing a damn thing developing markets for artists. At any rate, I DID IT and now when I bitch about it (as I have and will continue) I can speak first hand, LOL!
Here I am off to AND THE WINNER IS. My journey is all in German folks but the images will still give you an idea what a nightmare this whole entertainment system really is. Pity that the brilliant veterans that have already paid their industry-dues for decades, still have to result to this. I sure met enough of them while I was there! Hang in there gang! Don’t let the hordes of whining, talentless Teens bitching and moaning about how long they’ve waited and wanted and dreamed and worked for their stardom. Can I puke now?
Since I landed here in Germany recently, I’ve managed several cool productions as of late. However, one thing I wasn’t able to pull off easily was creating a Strat sound using my Martin’s and plugins. The easiest solution was to find a good strat….CHEAP! This Fender is tres cool and reminds me of Mr. Hendrix’s favorite whitey. Have a look…
Being the ‘hand-me-down’ lover that I am, I ended up with my pal Leslie’s iphone, when she bumped up to a 4. It’s proven to be a great device for me and I’ve created an abundance of art with the thing; pics, vids and now, music.
Sure, I’ve used the microphone to record song ideas, thoughts, sex sounds and the like but now that Apple has released GARAGEBAND for the iOS devices, it’s literally a fukn studio in your damn poket.
On this recording RING OF FIRE, there are 6 analog audio tracks (2 guitars, 4 vocals) recorded via the iphone’s own mic and there are 2 digital tracks (bass, drums) played within the program. Here’s my take on recording with GARAGEBAND with an iphone. This song definitely deserves a video!
You know what, I just dug this out of a hard drive containing dozens of so-so recorded gems. I really think it’s great and now I’d like to recorded proper. Anyone want to help out? It’s worthy! Scroll down for lyrics and leave a comment.
“TIME” written and performed by Kamary Phillips
We’ve followed you for centuries
A million moments multiplied by infinity
Only God can shake the hands of timeEveryone needs time
We’ll change the world in timeDon’t forget the time, peace and tranquility
It lives and breathes in our humility
Don’t forget the sympathy that you lent to me
I’ll give it back in timeEveryone needs time
We’ll change the world in time
It all revolves around timeI remember the time when I was 15
I fell in love with a girl named Cindy
We played spin the bottle and she had to kiss me
That was my first timeEveryone needs time
We’ll change the world in time
You’ll get yours in time
We’ll find the cure in time
We’ll win the war in time
Once upon a time
Don’t waste your precious time
Until the end of timeWe’ve followed you for centuries
A million moments multiplied by infinity
Only God can shake the hands of timeEveryone needs time
We’ll change the world in time
You’ll get yours in time
We’ll find the cure in time
Lets turn back the time
Once upon a time
All wounds are healed in time
Until the end of timeYou know it’s time
Like it? Pass it around…
